Walking around the backstreets of Ho Chi Minh City will give you a real feel for what it's like to live and work there. As you go down the winding alleys, you'll get closer to the neighborhood's homes and the market, with its colorful array of fresh produce and the hustling bustle and enticing smells of its many food booths. The locals' customs and culture of conducting business and sharing news are intriguing here.
After a long journey, you'll finally reach the secret storage site where weapons were kept throughout the war. During the buildup to the Tet Offensive on the 30th of January 1968, Viet Cong Commandos from "Team 5" concealed their weapons in this modest home. In 1988, the federal government recognized it as such.
